Depends on where you are. Out here in the boonies, I see a lot more Jags per capita than I did in the DC area. Maybe even in absolute numbers...

Atlanta doesn't rock the Jags...Hell looking at sales no one really does.

And is it me or there has been no or minimal advertising for the new Jag? And then when I do see an ad, its some dumbass Infiniti 1990 crap where they show people getting married or people eating and nothing of the damn car?

Idiots.

I see the Gorgeous ads on TV all the time. I think they're pretty good, actually...

LexFather

I have never seen a TV ad but I don't watch T.V much. The print ads are ridiculous.

Incendiary

Heh, the TV ads are more of the same, just longer and with music.

You don't watch pre-season football? Law & Order and Without a Trace? Monk, Psych, and House? What's wrong with you; do you have a life or something?

LexFather

Yeah, sorry . I guess I need one of those t.v cell phones.....

I simply LOVE that interior. Gone is the one that was all wood and replaced by something that is much classier (IMHO). THIS is a car I could consider (in 14 years when I don't have to cart kids around any more).

I still say they are too expensive for the power you get. The www.jaguarusa.com site says the XK starts at $75,500. That's for 300 hp. That's just dumb imo. The XKR is 86K for 420hp, that even dumber. Remember, this is a glorified Ford we're talking about. Can't you get an SL with over 400hp for 90K? I would rather get that Maserati coupe. It's around 90K with a little over 300hp but it's a baby Ferrari with exotic pedigree. Then there's the Bently GT for around 90K with over 400hp. Again, pedigree.

You have to remember that Jags are some of the lightest cars made (in their class) - if not the lightest. I did not check the specs on these new ones, but I seem to remember they are about the same weight as the old ones if not lighter.

C6 Z06 > This Jag

pricewise + performance > less-performance + more "luxury"

Something tells me these cars are not cross shopped much. Also they are so different that I really don't see how your equation even applies.

I went to the local Jag dealer to get some shots and check the real prices. I was shocked to see the top of the line cost almost 100K. I don't see it. In person it is a beautiful car but I didn't feel it's worth the price. I'd put it at 50K for the base and maybe 70K for the top model. Here's some pics:

I agree. I think the XK would be more comparble to an SL or SC, but definately not a C6 Z06.

I understand that there is a sense of sportiness to the XK, but it ain't about the sport. The Corvette stands on a different pedestal...

Somehow I think it looks like a modified Puma
